Create Order for Shipping Option in Invoices (Beta)

I've noticed there's a new option in invoices under shipping - a toggle button- that says "create order for shipping". We had this turned on.. but noticed a process disruption.

When shipping invoices there is a now the opportunity to add a tracking number. When we're shipping invoices we do this in the invoices screen, not the order screen. The invoice inventory is often pulled while we are invoicing- so when we're shipping those orders, we already have the inventory pulled.

When the invoice is added to the order screen, entering the tracking number on the invoice side doesn't affect the invoice on the order side.

So- even though we are shipping, adding tracking info, and archiving invoices, it still shows as a "live" order in the order screen- effectively creating double work.

We need the invoice side to clear the invoice out of orders- and vice versa. An action on one side should affect the other side.

Hope that makes sense.
